Welcome! I'm Eric Lerner, a Microsoft Certified Partner with the
Silver ISV Competency, Enterprise Application Development and Business
Process Improvement expert, and current Director of Internet Marketing
and Database Driven Web Application Development practices for the Millenium
Multimedia Corporation.
I'm a freelance SEO expert web developer, business analyst, project
manager, and have both deep corporate intranet experience including
several SharePoint Portal Server implementations and public facing web
development in concert with SharePoint/MOSS and also using organic search
engine optimization to deliver high traffic via high quality, engaging
content.
On the public facing side, for example, at
Free Horoscopes Astrology I provide e-business, e-commerce, affiliate
marketing, search engine marketing and search engine optimization with
Alexa top 50,000 US results using the latest web technologies and mobile
website design and development techniques.
Another public and this time HTML5/CSS/jQuery implementation for
Manhattan's premier real estate developer (after an in-house commercial
real estate leasing pipeline LINQ to SQL application with MOSS list
integration), I designed and developed Silverstein Properties' tiffany
Manhattan residential real estate property website, Silver Towers
New York Apartments website. Their HTML5/CSS/jQuery
Flash replacement is another recent high traffic .Net site leveraging
HTML5, CSS jQuery and jQueryUI with near total cross-platform coverage,
that performs well in organic search engine results placements with
Alexa showing top 40,000 NY Metro market traffic rank.
Both sites reach their very different target markets successfully
via search engine keyword marketing and deliver value for money via
the Run My Website TM CMS and value for money SEO consulting.
One is a web publishing/AdSense/affiliate marketing play grossing over
$6,000 per month virtually unattended for the publisher and the other
is outperforming the corporate parent site (as an individual property)!
I'm also a SQL Server expert from data modeling to implementation and
SQL Server operations and application integration. I'm well-versed in
the latest internet trends as well as their history. I specialize in

VB 6.0, SQL Server 2000, 2003, 2005, 2008, 2008R2, Internet Information

I'm a former Manager of Application Development for ING and technical
associate from Credit Suisse First Boston on the permanent side, currently
freelancing for Silverstein Properties in the Real Estate Sector.
I launched the first Clarion Partners intranet and the first Estee
Lauder intranet, as well as the first browser based electronic forms
processing and workflow application for the New York City Law Department.
I have worked on a project basis for large enterprises for over a
decade, including
Silverstein
Properties, the
London Borough
of Bromley,
ING Real Estate (ING Clarion Partners), the New York City Law Department,
the Estee Lauder Companies,
Credit Suisse First Boston, Newmark
Knight Frank Global Real Estate Advisors,
Koch Records,
i-Deal (partnership between Merrill
Lynch, Salomon Smith Barney, Microsoft, Thompson Financial) and many
others including 1iota Productions,
MTV, VH1, ABC and the NFL.
I have broad IS and IT consulting experience from numerous engagements,
including the Entertainment, Retail, Government, Real Estate and Finance
sectors.
I've had a wonderful and rewarding career journey since May of 1997.
That's when I graduated Summa Cum Laude and Outstanding Graduating Senior
in MIS with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. My concentrations
were in Marketing, Management Science and Information Systems (MIS)
and I minored in Computer Science at the State University of New York,
in Albany.
Today, as a Microsoft Certified Partner with a Silver ISV Competency,
Software Advisor and internet guru with a well-architected, reusable
code base and an amazing, current body of organized research, I'm a
freelance web developer or tinkering with my own products and content
based websites.
As a well rounded businessman and technologist, in every one of my
consulting engagements and freelance projects, I help CIOs, business
managers, entrepreneurs, marketers, publishers and their teams define
and deliver real solutions to real problems or in many instances can
outsource entire web development projects.
Combining industry standards and best practices, such as separation
of presentation and content, valid HTML/XHTML/XML, CSS, JavaScript, jQuery, HTML5, XSLT and
AJAX with Microsoft tools such as Visio, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Project,
.Net, SQL Server, ASP.Net, VB.Net, C#.Net, SQL Server databases, Web
Parts and Web Services, I build websites, intranets, extranets, portals,
content management solutions and collaboration workspaces including
Windows SharePoint Services, and SharePoint Portal Server.
I can meet your every need technologically. I can also handle requirements
analysis, design, technical writing and documentation along with application
development, testing, maintenance and both technical and non-technical
training in formal or informal teaching environments.
I frequently wear the infrastructure and operations hat and manage
physical and virtual server builds, imaging, hardening/security and
have worked extensively with Active Directory and the ever-challenging
problems of provisioning in IT and managing organizational and enterprise
directory information and single-sign on.
From a business perspective, I have worked closely with HR, Finance,
Accounting, Marketing and Business Intelligence groups and gained the
insights that allow me to anticipate problems and create opportunities
for these business units through practical experience with collaboration,
workflow, and process improvement.
I work closely with end users, middle and senior managers as well
as developers, operations and 3rd party vendors to tie projects together,
keep the focus on the mission and deliver projects on time, within budget.
In summary, I am a very senior consultant who's experience spans
infrastructure and operations, enterprise application architecture,
database design modeling and implementation, application development
methodologies and development team leadership.

I am a Microsoft application and database specialist, a seasoned
IT project manager and team leader, and an architect of technology solutions
to business problems.
I have been leading browser based application, portal and e-commerce
initiatives for over 13 years on both a permanent and corp. to corp.
consulting basis.
My primary focus is on improving the speed and accuracy of information
flows throughout organizations between them and their customers and
vendors. I focus on process and seek to inject technology where appropriate,
to reuse organizational knowledge and preserve organizational memory.
I'm focused on making it easier for people to do their jobs, automating
the tasks that can be automated and simplifying those which can't be
fully automated, but can improve the operating efficiency of knowledge
workers.
I'm also focused on improving the bottom line by reducing costs through
greater efficiency, and where marketing and e-commerce are involved,
I'm focused on increasing the top line through integrated marketing
communication efforts.
Behind or in front of the firewall, I help my clients to fully realize
their business objectives efficiently and cost-effectively in their
application development efforts across the full process improvement
and software development life cycle: discovery and analysis (inception),
design (elaboration), implementation (construction), testing and maintenance
(transition).
My internet projects and legacy technology roles have run the gamut
over the past ten years. From mainframe to client-server to the web,
I've performed business and system requirements analysis, data and process
modeling, system and application architecture and integration, application
development, configuration management, tool and vendor evaluations,
relationship management, implementations and rollouts, performance measurement,
technical writing and system evolution.
Inception
I begin by formulating and understanding the strategic vision and
scope for technology initiatives and then fully capturing and clearly
expressing all functional and technical requirements. To accomplish
this, I work closely with management, users and other project stakeholders
to understand, map and measure business processes, existing systems
and environments. Through joint application development sessions, interviews
and meetings, I encourage and facilitate the communication necessary
to ensure that any technology solution is completely aligned with business
objectives and that all stakeholders have input and buy-in.
Elaboration
Armed with a comprehensive understanding of the business and functional
requirements for systems, I bridge the gap between business and technology
by drafting technical requirements and architectural, application and
data design alternatives. I serve in the roles of, or lead, analysts,
architects, data modelers and developers. Alternatives are reviewed
with stakeholders and technologists, strengths and weaknesses are evaluated
so solutions can be selected, cost estimated and time-lined. These blueprints
serve as the foundation models for the remainder of the software development
life cycle.
Construction
Development is performed rapidly and iteratively with prototype demonstrations
and feedback from project stakeholders at established milestones.
Throughout this process, I can lead manage a project’s resources,
budget and timeline as well as the implementation effort, change and
configuration management during build, package and deployment. Project
leadership often requires that I get my hands “dirty” by establishing
the development environment, development standards or performing database
management, development, code reviews, quality assurance and release
management.
Transition
Finally, I help transfer knowledge to the maintainers of the system
and train the trainers in the application to ensure seamless adoption
and ongoing success.
I've led successful technology projects, hands-on for:
- Silverstein Properties
- London Borough of Bromley
- ING Americas (ING Investment Management, ING Realty, ING Clarion
Partners, Clarion Capital, Clarion Realty Services)
- Newmark Knight Frank
- 1iota Productions (MTV Networks, VH1, ABC TV, The National Football
League)
- Western Connecticut State University (WCSU)
- The New York City Law Department
- Koch International (Koch Records)
- The Estee Lauder Companies, Clinique, MAC, Bobbie Brown
- Credit Suisse First Boston
- I-Deal (Merrill Lynch, Microsoft, Salomon Smith Barney, Thomson
Financial)
- NYCRealty.com
- Visual Media
I have a proven track record of providing hands-on leadership in
successful technology projects over the full project lifecycle, from
inception to evolution.
These experiences have provided me with the "in the bones" knowledge
and technical credibility to lead project teams hands-on and to deliver
success. I believe leaders must not only talk the talk...they must also
walk the walk.
Past clients will tell you that I'm self-motivated, proactive and
I always get the job done.
My value proposition lies in my ability to bridge the business, people
and technology aspects of each engagement.
Significant leadership responsibilities, high priority, high visibility
and longer term (6-18 month) engagements are preferred. Please don't
hesitate to approach me with your individual needs...We'll know each
other when we find each other! I'm open to corp. to corp., right to
hire or direct placement opportunities in South Florida, New York or
London.
Take care of yourself, be well and if you'd like to
contact me, I look forward to
discussing your needs! Be sure to have a look at my
resume first. If you are
